Confirming the measurements would be great. Can you should them across?

I had trouble finding the correct rear measurements in particular.

From the centre of the wheel to the bottom of the fender
- Front was 500mm and after is 560mm
- Rear was 495mm and is 530mm

From what I found on the interwebs, stock should be 525mm and rear 563mm (which seems too high).

Those fender height measurements aren't reliable.....Jeep measures the bump stop clearance for ride height......and just for interest, there is a 0.98" "up" tolerance to the factory ride height...which means the factory geometry is still within limits at that height.
Mine was set at Rubicon height plus the 0.98" up tolerance....I have no non-factory correction brackets and the JK handles and drives perfectly.

Thanks for that, it is hard to find the exact measures.

Front is 5.1 inches, so 1.3 inches over stock
Rear is 5.3 inches... so 0.22 inches over stock

It's pretty much within the normal ranges.

Yeah, I wouldn't worry about correction brackets at that....
